45 years ago today, Blondie released the single “Heart of Glass” from their third studio album “Parallel Lines” “Once I had a love and it was a gas…soon turned out to be a pain in the ass.”
@JakeRudh @clem_burke Blondie's first 4 albums are incredible with the last one "Eat to the Beat" from 1979 being the best one they ever released.
@JakeRudh @clem_burke As perfect a “pop/rock” album you will ever hear
@JakeRudh @clem_burke One of my 1st initial 8track tapes from Columbia House 🤣
@JakeRudh @clem_burke A late 70s new wave song with a heavy disco beat, yet it doesn't sound the least bit dated. That's amazing. I used that hubba hubba single cover for my Best Of / Ideal Concert Set List mix and have 5 songs from that landmark album on it: open.spotify.com/playlist/64nPQ…
@JakeRudh @clem_burke This album was a very early obsession of mine.
@JakeRudh @clem_burke I was surprised when I read the lyrics 😄
@JakeRudh @clem_burke Timeless song. Despite the very prominent disco construct.
